Fraterfest 2021 TBR

IT'S SPOOKY SEASON!!! I'm so excited for this time of year and one of my favorite annual events (even though I always fail miserably)! Fraterfest is a yearly spooky read-a-thon and you can sign up HERE! Today I'm sharing my (extremely) tentative TBR, which consists entirely of books already on my shelf or Kindle. This most certainly is not a definitive list since most years I don't even remotely stick to it, but these are some scary, spooky, and gothic books I can't wait to get to! Here's hoping I finish at least one of them.  What spooky book are you looking forward to? Will you be participating in Fraterfest? Let me know in...

Saturday Screen Time #45: Eight months later

 Happy Saturday, everyone! It has been a LONG time since I've done one of these. Actually, it has been over eight months! Honestly though, I really wasn't watching a whole lot during that time. I went quite a few months only watching reality TV because my brain couldn't handle much more than that. Thankfully, I've been feeling a bit back to my old self recently so it's time for another one! I'll be back soon with my Halloween watches, I'm sure!RECENTLY IN (NEW TO ME) MOVIESTHE BESTWest of Memphis - I have been obsessed with this case for years and I've been wanting to watch this documentary for awhile.

Mood reading is the worst

Being a mood reader is absolutely wild. I can go from reading adult high fantasy to only wanting to read middle grade graphic novels. From reading YA fantasy exclusively to nothing but the best dark spicy romance. I wish SO MUCH that I could sit down and pull a book title from a jar and read it. I have so many incredible books on my shelves that I preordered because I really wanted to read them. I even have access to ARCs of some of my most anticipated 2021 releases! And what have I been reading? Kindle unlimited romance. Thanks, brain. To illustrate this I decided to grab screenshots from my handy dandy reading spreadsheets from 2020 and...
